Earlier this year, former Olympian Jenner — who introduced her new identity to the world on the cover of Vanity Fair last week — was sued by Dana Redmond and William Howe, Kim Howe's stepchildren. That suit alleges that Jenner' vehicle hit Howe's car, pushing it into oncoming traffic.

According to the earlier suit, Howe's death "caused plaintiffs to suffer enormous damages and losses."

Jenner's legal team has fired back in that suit, claiming that the stepchildren are grown, successful adults who weren't financially dependent on Howe — a claim that the stepchildren attempted to shoot down in their own subsequent filing.
